Great performance of many semiconductor devices requirs the use of low-resistance ohmic contact. Typically, transmission line method (TLM) patterns are used to measure the specific contact resistance between silicon and metal. In this works, we investigate contact resistance for metal dependent (Cr/Ag, Ni) using TLM pattern based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer. The electrode with Ni linearly increases contact resistance as the pattern distance increase from $15{\mu}m$ to $75{\mu}m$ in accumulation part, but non-linearly increase in inversion part. In additional, the electrode with Cr/Ag linearly increases contact resistance as the pattern distance increase from $15{\mu}m$ to $75{\mu}m$ in inversion part, but non-linearly increase in accumulation part.

Background: Obesity is a risk factor for aging and many diseases, and the disorder of lipid metabolism makes it prominent. This study aims to investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on aging, lipid metabolism and stress resistance Methods: Rg1 was administered to Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) cultured in NGM or GNGM. The lifespan, locomotory activity, lipid accumulation, cold and heat stress resistance and related mRNA expression of the worms were examined. Gene knockout mutants were used to clarify the effect on lipid metabolism of Rg1. GFP-binding mutants were used to observe the changes in protein expression Results: We reported that Rg1 reduced lipid accumulation and improved stress resistance in C. elegans. Rg1 significantly reduced the expression of fatty acid synthesis-related genes and lipid metabolism-related genes in C. elegans. However, Rg1 did not affect the fat storage in fat-5/fat-6 double mutant or nhr-49 mutant. Combined with network pharmacology, we clarified the possible pathways and targets of Rg1 in lipid metabolism. In addition, Rg1-treated C. elegans showed a higher expression of anti-oxidative genes and heat shock proteins, which might contribute to stress resistance Conclusion: Rg1 reduced fat accumulation by regulating lipid metabolism via nhr-49 and enhanced stress resistance by its antioxidant effect in C. elegans.

Gastric cancer is one of the most frequently occurring malignancies in the world. Development of multiple drug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapy is known as the major cause of treatment failure for gastric cancer. Multiple drug resistance 1/P-glycoprotein (MDR1/p-gp) contributes to drug resistance via ATP-dependent drug efflux pumps and is overexpressed in many solid tumors including gastric cancer. To investigate the role of MDR1 knockdown on drug resistance reversal, we knocked down MDR1 expression using shRNA in drug resistant gastric cancer cells and examined the consequences with regard to adriamycin (ADR) accumulation and drug-sensitivity. Two shRNAs efficiently inhibited mRNA and protein expression of MDR1 in SGC7901-MDR1 cells. MDR1 knockdown obviously decreased the ADR accumulation in cells and increased the sensitivity to ADR treatment. Together, our results revealed a crucial role of MDR1 in drug resistance and confirmed that MDR1 knockdown could reverse this phenotype in gastric cancer cells.

고속처리를 위한 나노급의 논리소자의 개발을 위해서는 소스/드레인 영역의 저항을 감소시키는 것이 필수적이다. 반도체소자의 개발 로드맵을 제시하고 있는 ITRS의 보고에 의하면 70㎚급 MOSFET에서는 채널영역의 저항에 대비하여 그 외의 영역이 나타내는 저항성분이 약 15% 이내로 제작되어야 할 것으로 예측하고 있다. 이 기준을 유지하기 위해서는 소스/드레인 영역의 각 전류 흐름에 기인하는 가상적 기생저항에 대한 성분 분리와 이들이 가지는 저항값에 대한 정량적 계산이 이루어져야 한다. 이에 본 논문은 calibration된 TCAD simulation을 통해 나노영역의 Tr.에서 저항성분을 계산, 평가하는 방법을 연구하였다. 특히, 소스/드레인 영역의 실리사이드 접촉 저항성분들을 최소화하여 optimize하기 위한 전략을 제시한다.

본 논문에서는 LDD(lightly doped drain)구조를 갖는 짧은 채널 MOSFET에서의 기생저항의 게이트 전압 의존도에 대한 모형을 제시하였다. 게이트 전극 밑에 위치한 LDD 영역에서는 게이트 전압에 의해 준 이차원적인 축적층(quasi two-dimensional accumulation layer)이 형성된다. 소오스 측 LDD 기생저항을 축적층의 저항과 벌크 LDD 저항의 병렬 연결로 취급하였으며 별크 LDD 저항은 채널의 반전층 끝으로부터 ${n^+}$영역의 경계까지 퍼짐 저항으로 근사하였다. 그리고 접합에서의 도우핑 농도 구배가 LDD 저항에 미치는 영향이 토의하였다. 본 모형의 결과로 선형 영역에서는 LDD 저항이 게이트 전압의 증가에 따라 감소하고, 포화영역에서는 채널과 LDD에서 속도포화를 고려한 결과, 게이트 전압에 대해 준 일차적으로 증가하는 것으나 나타나 발표된 실험결과들과 일치하였다.

A fluorescent material was accumulated in inoculated leaves showing necrotic local lesions of tobacco plants with N gene, Nicotiana tabacum cvs. Xanthi-nc NN, Samsun NN, Burley 21 and KF 114, and N. glutinosa, and Datura stramonium at the early growth stages by the inoculation of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). It was identified as a coumarin phytoalexin, scopoletin. Although the material was most prominently produced in TMV-inoculated tobacco leaves with local necrotic lesions, its accumulation was also noted in uninoculated leaves of TMV-inoculated plants. Its accumulation was somewhat greater in high resistance-induced leaves than low resistance-induced and intact leaves. Scopoletin treatment induced the expression of a pathogenesis-related protein, PR-1, prominently at the concentration of 500 or 1000 ${\mu}$g/ml. This suggests that scopoletin is a phytoalexin abundantly accumulating in N gene-containing resistant plants in response to TMV infection, and may be related to hypersensitive responses (HR) and systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in the resistant tobacco plants.

Induction of systemic acquired resistance (SAR) against phytophthora blight and pathogenesis-related (PR) protein accumulation by TMV infection in pepper plant (Capsicum annuum cv. Nockwang) were examined to understand the mechanism of the systemic acquired resistance in pepper plant. The zoospore suspension of Phytophthora capsici was inoculated on stem of pepper plant in which TMV-pepper strain had been inoculated on fully expanded upper leaves, and thephytopha blight incidence was examined. Both disease severity and lesion length of phytophthora blight were much smaller in TMV pre-inoculated pepper plant than in uninoculated control plants. The phytophthora blight incidence was decreased about 50% in the TMV pre-inoculated pepper, compared to the uninoculated control plant at 10 days after P. capsici inoculation. Accumulation of PR1 and PR5 proteins in intercellular fluid of TMV-inoculated and uninoculated upper leaves were monitored by immuno-blot with tobacco P1b and PR5a, antibody during induction of SAR. PR1 and PR5 were detected from 24 hours after TMV inoculation in both TMV-inoculated and uninouclated upper leaves, and increased rapidly in TMV-inoculation in uninoculated upper leaves were defoliated. PR5 could be detected upto 20 days after TMV inoculation in uninoculated upper leaves. These results suggest that TMV infection induces SAR against phytophthora blight in pepper plant, and that PR proteins are accumulated very rapidly during induction of SAR and maintained for quite long time in pepper plant.

Cisplatin, a platinum coordinated complex, is a widely used antineoplastic agent for the treatment of metastatic tumors of the testis, metastatic ovarian tumors, lung cancer, advanced bladder cancer and many other solid tumors. The cytotoxic action of the drug is often thought to be associated with its ability to bind DNA to form cisplatin-DNA adducts. The development of resistance to cisplatin during treatment is common and constitutes a major obstacle to the cure of sensitive tumors. Although to understand the clinically relevant mechanisms of resistance, many studies have been aimed at clarifying the biochemical/molecular alterations of cisplatin-resistance cells, these studies did not conclusively identify the basis of cellular resistance to cisplatin. In this review, cisplatin resistance was discussed in terms of the relevant transporters, such as copper transporters (CTRs), organic cation transporters (OCTs) and multi-drug resistance related transporters (MDRs). These transporters seem to be contributed to cisplatin resistance through the reduction of drug accumulation in the cell. Better understanding the mechanism of cisplatin resistance associated with transporters will provide the useful informations for overcoming the cisplatin resistance.

In this work, static characteristics of 4H-SiC SJ-ACCUFETs were obtained by adjusting the p-pillar region. The structure of this SJ-ACCUFET was designed by using a two-dimensional simulator. The static characteristics of SJ-ACCUFET, such as the breakdown voltages, on-resistance, and figure of merits, were obtained by varying the p-pillar doping concentration from $1{\times}10^{15}cm^{-3}$ to $5{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ and the thickness from $0{\mu}m$ to $9{\mu}m$. The doping concentration and the thickness of p-pillar region are closely related to the break down voltage and on-resistance and threshold voltages. Hence a silicon carbide SJ-ACCUFET structure with highly intensified breakdown voltages and low on-resistances with good figure of merits can be achieved by optimizing the p-pillar thickness and doping concentration.
